Communities in Schools receives $2.5 million federal grant

November 14, 2018 by CISMBC

A new grant to be received by Communities in Schools of Milledgeville-Baldwin County (CISMBC) will seek to increase student success by boosting services in a few key areas.

The funding, totaling $2.5 million over the next five years from the U.S. Department of Education’s Full Service Community Schools (FSCS) grant, will create Wraparound Baldwin, a new program aimed at increasing CISMBC’s impact by improving literacy among K-2 students and also the level of parental involvement in the community.

“Full Service Community Schools provides comprehensive academic, social and health services for students, students’ family members, and community members that will result in improved educational outcomes for children,” said Sandy Baxter, CISMBC executive director, while addressing the Baldwin County Board of Education during Tuesday’s regular monthly meeting.
